Sensitive-file disclosure via database path traversal
Published Feb 12, 2025 · Updated Feb 17, 2025
Path traversal in Q-Free MAXTIME Suite 2.11.0 and earlier allows remote authenticated users to read sensitive files via HTTP. maxtime/api/database/database.lua fails to neutralize traversal sequences in an HTTP-supplied pathname before opening the resolved file. Exploitation alone requires high-privilege management access, although a separate authentication-bypass flaw can remove this gate; the reported impact is file disclosure only.

Exploitability
Present is not the same as exploitable
Compare your product and version with the public record. A matching version still requires validation against your environment.
Is a vulnerable build present?
Compare these published version ranges with your installed build and any vendor patches.
